*
* A piece of state carrying a single {@link String}.
*
*
* If this state is registered using {@link INamedHandleStateIds#NAME} or
* {@link INamedHandleStateIds#DESCRIPTION}, then this allows the handler to
* communicate a textual change for a given command. This is typically used by
* graphical applications to allow more specific text to be displayed in the
* menus. For example, "Undo" might become "Undo Typing" through the use of a
* {@link TextState}.

* Clients may instantiate this class, but must not extend.
